Donald Trump's new pick for US Attorney General may have been his original choice all along. She's a loyalist and Florida based. My thinking is Matt Gaetz may have been a sacrifice bunt; Ms Bondi has all the qualifications and she's a Trump loyalist. Who could turn down a woman for the role?

I like how the above link tries to impugn Ms Bondi's reputation, she must have the right stuff, Washington DC has reason to be afraid I'm guessing.
